say health care should be the right of all American citizens. That alone, tells you where she stands on Universal Health care. Fixing the ACA, which is no more than catastrophic insurance, is not acceptable. The deductibles are not affordable, and most cannot pay for it. AND 29M are still without.

the deductible, the monthly payments, plus the doctor bills are not affordable to some of us
I am thankful that I don't have to take any meds or go to the doctor that much, but the cost of all those together is just too much

then you'll be penalized. I pay 197 for 2, bronze plan, that pays for nothing except my annual physical. 6.5k deductible, which most cannot afford. It would be disastrous if I had to pay it. 1 hospital visit and that's it. So now, you see where the disastrous part comes in. I keep my house, but have to pay 6.5k out of pocket. Imagine having to do this annually. And that's 13K for two.

but I've decided I'm not watching interviews by Andrea Greenspan, and George the 75,000 dollar donator-to-Clinton Foundation.
They just make my blood pressure go up.

George 'Clinton-lackey' Stephanoupolos conduct this interview.................

Bottom line on the single-payer health care issue is that having 'health insurance' and having 'health care' are mutually exclusive issues. Just because one has the mandated insurance does not guarantee the latter.
